The Farmer Family
Monty Farmer brought his wife Jessica and their son Chad to Old Town to celebrate their daughter Lisa's wedding to Luther Smith. Shortly thereafter, Monty relocated his family to Old Town permanently.
Monty, who was blessed with good looks and a keen eye for detail, found work in the fashion industry, becoming a famous designer before moving on to become a Fashion Columnist. He still keeps his hand in, watching television each day to see what works and what doesn't, and commenting on it at night while sketching his own ideas on what goes together.
Jessica, from whom Lisa inherited her talent and interest, had been an entertainer before her children were born. Upon moving to Old Town, with her children fully grown and able to take care of themselves, she returned to the industry, this time as a musician. She is now a Rock Star and extremely successful, despite her maturity, able to bridge the gap between the people of her generation and those of her children's generation.
Chad, after graduating from college, thought briefly about following his mother and his sister's path, but though he enjoys going to Studio Town for impromptu sessions, he decided the stress wasn't for him. Instead, he developed his other skills and went into the Paranormal professions, rising to become an Exorcist.
While in college Chad had found a friend in Blake, who had shared his interests in the entertainment industry. However, while Chad had given up on the idea, Blake had tried to make a go of it. They reconnected in Studio Town. Blake, who had been in foster care his entire life, was having a hard time. Chad invited him home, and Monty and Jessica--despite Blake's having attained his majority--legally adopted him and gave him their family name. Blake, with Chad's help, also went into the Paranormal professions and became an Exorcist as well.
It came as a surprise to everyone when Blake and Luther Smith came face to face...because they were actually twin brothers, who had been adopted separately and had lost touch with each other.
Chad met one of Blake's friends from Studio Town, and young woman named Sydney. The two fell in love and married. Sydney moved into the Farmer home and, deciding that she'd never be as successful as Jessica, went back to college and got a degree in business administration. She started her own company and now makes nearly as much as a CEO as her husband does. She and Chad have one son, Gregory.
Blake met a young woman named Lorna while on a trip Downtown. After a couple of casual dates, things turned serious, and in a short while he asked her to marry him. Lorna, who had also grown up in foster care, knows only that her father was a major player who carried on with multiple women, and that she probably has brother and sisters somewhere out in the world (actually, she has three younger half-brothers in town, even if she doens't know it--the Millers). Though she initially thought to work as a Personal Tour Guide, she decided to work with her husband instead, becoming an Exorcist. She and Blake have a daughter, Robyn.
Incidentally, Monty's sister--his much younger sister, owing to his father remarrying after his first wife died--also lives in town. Given that she is only a year or two older than his own children, however, and that he was already out of the house when she was born, he barely knows her. More on her later.
